Cine & Jazz
A tribute to the centenaries of Marcello Mastroianni, Marlon Brando and Henry Mancini
Arrangements, original compositions and musical direction by Andrea Ravizza, with the Orchestra Magister Harmoniae
Special guests:
Carola Cora – voice
Ugo Viola – accordion
The concert pays tribute to three iconic figures of twentieth-century cinema on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of their birth. The programme revisits themes and musical atmospheres associated with the worlds of Henry Mancini, Marlon Brando and Marcello Mastroianni, through a personal and contemporary jazz language.
The ensemble combines a chamber orchestra with a jazz big band and soloists, featuring leading musicians from the local music scene. Andrea Ravizza’s arrangements and compositions give the programme a distinctive stylistic identity, well known to audiences of the Moncalieri Jazz Festival.
